he uses color to express emotion or metaphor. the red here, for example, representing the supernatural. these ideas led, in part, to the expressionism of his quartersree friend, vin vent van gogh. some 30 years later. which is all very good. why put on the exhibition at this moment? it is simply a case of gaugin's turn. maybe there's a need for a blockbuster. or is there more to this decision? >> gaugin is very relevant to us today because of the way he explored through his life and art alternatives to what he rejects in material terms of civilization, capitalism. he is drawing away from that, as well as knowing that his art depends on it. so he's fully aware of all the contradictions that we are conscious of today. >> reporter: for all his personal shortcomings -- and there were many -- gaugin was a brilliant colorist. something that is difficult to fully appreciate until a roomful of evidence had been placed before your eyes. >> apparently there's one more piece we have not seen from mr. gaugin. >> let's take a look at that. th

and check out what this iraqi first lieutenant admitted to us. with the american combat troops leaving can the iraqi army keep the peace here? "to be honest," he says, "we need a couple more years." t minus three days until the end of combat and i'm out on the streets of baghdad. to be fair, it's glaringly obvious that iraqi troops who have been in charge here for months are doing a pretty good job keeping the peace. now families are out having ice cream and fancy new restaurants are opening up. although they will pat you down for weapons before you can get a table. yet so many of the iraqis we meet are deeply, darkly pessimistic. including this off-duty cop. even though you are a police officer, you don't think the iraqi forces can keep this country safe without the americans here anymore? >> yes, i don't think so. we don't have enough weapons, we are not ready for this mission. >> reporter: we're frequently asked by complete strangers if we can help them leave this country and come to america. why do you want to leave here? >> it's no good. >>
